You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at least
contain the root `toctree` directive.
Welcome to Kivy's documentation!
================================
Kivy is an open source library for developing multi-touch applications. It is
completely cross-platform (Linux/OSX/Win) and released under the terms of the
GNU LGPL.
It comes with native support for many multi-touch input devices, a growing
library of multi-touch aware widgets, hardware accelerated OpenGL drawing,
and an architecture that is designed to let you focus on building custom and
highly interactive applications as quickly and easily as possible.
Thanks to Kivy's pure Python interface, you can take advantage of its highly
dynamic nature and use any of the thousands of high quality Python libraries
out there.
At the same time, performance-critical sections are internally implemented
on the C-level to maximize performance.
See http://kivy.org for more information.
Programming Guide of Kivy

reference if you are looking for information about a specific class or
